Discussion

Yvette Neisser Moreno Nov 8, 2007:
Is this for a US or UK audience? I just want to mention that the word "subvention" is extremely rare in US English. Here we would say grants, subsidies, or funding depending on the context.
patyjs (asker) Nov 8, 2007:
exactly that! 2006 :)
moken Nov 8, 2007:
Hi Paty. Is this followed by the year, e.g. Convocatoria de Subvenciones de Cooperación para el Desarrollo 2006?

But it's a convocatoria de not sobre. In any case, it's a call to X about subsidies for development cooperation.//Would be helpful to have more context so we wouldn't speculate!
